COLUMBUS, Ohio March 31, 2008 -- Integrated Mobile, the leader in managed mobility
solutions
for
enterprises, today announced the launch of a free recycling program for
its clients’ end-of-life mobile devices. The
eco-friendly recycling program further enhances Integrated Mobile’s
end-to-end life cycle management offering for enterprises at no cost to
its clients. The new program addresses two key concerns for enterprises
managing the rapid growth of mobile devices: ensuring end-of-life
devices are wiped clean of company data and disposed of in a secure and
eco-friendly manner. Integrated Mobile has partnered with ReCellular
Inc. to provide this service to its clients.
“This new offering is a natural
extension of our end-to-end life cycle management services and is
something our clients so far have been very excited about,”
said Bruce Smith, Chief Operating and Financial Officer. “With
the surge of wireless devices in use in the enterprise, secure and safe
disposal of old devices has become increasingly burdensome for
enterprises. Moreover, enterprises today are progressively more
concerned about the environment and working with “Green
IT” vendors. We’re
delighted to be able to offer our enterprise clients this important new
service.”
“In addition to offering environmentally safe
recycling of mobile phones, ReCellular also provides security by
protecting confidential corporate information that could be used for
identity theft,” said Suman Dutta VP,
Enterprise Services for ReCellular. “The
issue of information security has grown exponentially with the increased
use of multi-function smart phones that store e-mail messages, contact
information, and calendar entries, with the average smart phone capable
of storing thousands of documents containing confidential information.
To protect this cache of corporate information, ReCellular Enterprise
offers clients a proprietary 73 point data-deletion process that
securely scrubs all data from wireless handsets, including removable
memory-storage cards.”
Smith continued, “One of the main reasons we
chose ReCellular was for their strong data-deletion capabilities. Our
enterprise customers can take comfort in the fact that ReCellular’s
processes really do clean all data from mobile devices. ReCellular
explained to us that it is not at all uncommon for them to find data on
devices during their deletion process that were supposedly already
cleaned of data.”
